Classic Christmas Songs more than 100 years old
These songs we know by heart and hear so often have rich histories rooted in things like war, religion, social reform, and slavery. This list includes Christmas carols, famous instrumentals, popular hymns, and spirituals from countries around the world. Many of these songs were created out of a chance collaboration between artists spanning time and space; a clergyman pens a hymn, and years later, a composer resurrects those words and sets them to a melody. Download many of the arrangements we now have available in chord charts, piano/vocal, choir sheets, or orchestrations.

Jesus says, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12). Download chord charts, vocal sheets, orchestrations and more!
